A Girl Named Zippy: Growing Up Small in Mooreland, Indiana
Readnmachine avatar reviewed on + 1440 more book reviews


Engaging memoir about growing up in a small Indiana town in the late 1960s. Kimmel does a wonderful job of keeping the book's voice that of her younger self, yet manages to allude to things she wasn't aware of as a child. The small-town characters are wonderfully drawn.
